Inner Life and Worlds of Soul & Spirit (New Light on the Visions of Anne C. Emmerich, #10)
by Anne Catherine Emmerich and James Richard Wetmore
The various crises we experience in society and culture today, at their root, reveal a spiritual problem: a profound lack of meaning. The mystical truths revealed in scripture can surely help. Part One, "Entering the Desert," introduces the reader to principles of awareness, deep listening, and contemplation as essential for "hearing" what Scripture has to say.

Love in the Void (Plough Spiritual Guides: Backpack Classics)
by Simone Weil

Why is it that Simone Weil, with her short, troubled life and confounding insights into faith and doubt, continues to speak to today's spiritual seekers?

Der sichere Weg zur christlichen Vollkommenheit
by Johannes Vom Kreuz
Writing Teresa: The Saint from Avila at the fin-de-siglo examines the Teresa de Jesus "boom" of roughly 1880-1930 and offers an in-depth study of five major Spanish participants in the turn-of-the-twentieth-century explosion of literary treatments of St. Teresa. This historical period's interest in the Saint from Avila relates to popularization and nationalization of aspects of Catholicism, technological advances, a modernist fascination with saintly heroes, the search for new Spanish identities...
